Home / Web Pads / Epods One General Post Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem.

Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Nezza I'm using an ePod with an Orinoco Wireless Card (Latest driver version 6.28) connecting to a Residential Gateway (Orinoco RG1000) and then to a Win2K Terminal Services server. The setup works great, UNTIL it hangs occasionaly. I'll be browsing the web using Terminal services and then the ePod will just hang, it doesn't respond to any key presses. The power button stops working and the only way to get out of it is to soft reset. Once I soft reset I can re-connect to the old terminal services session and continue browsing! I thought this problem was fixed in the latest version of the Orinoco drivers??? I'm using the lastest versions of everything, terminal services client 1998 Build 9117 (I presume this is the newest?) If I look at the version info of the Orinoco client I see the following: Driver Var1 V6.28 Build 132 Driver Name: WLLUC46 Orinoco Client - Var 1 V1.02 Primary Firmware - Var 1 V4.00 Station Firmware - Var 1 v7.28 Anybody experienced this or have a fix/workaround? Thanks for your help. 04-01-2001 07:32:09

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Pete I was kind of seeing this occassionally and assigned epods to more program memory and it seemed to work. The old problem related to drivers was the flaming icon or a loss of network connectivity totally unrelated. I have upgraded my epods to 2.x and 32 megs of internal memory and a 64 meg CF card. I am using WAVELANS Bronze, Silver and Gold cards. Since my NP connection was shut down last week have my firewall dialing up via POTS line and noticed some slowdown on epods connecting to TS but not enough to justify not using it. 04-01-2001 08:41:56

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) sadlerjon 6.28 is NOT the most recent drivers. See this other thread for more information: http://www.linux-hacker.net/cgi-bin/UltraBoard/UltraBoard.pl?Action=ShowPost&Board=EpodsOne&Post=1045&Idle=0&Sort=0&Order=Descend&Page=1&Session= 04-01-2001 19:21:18

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Pete <sadlerjon> thanks for catching that as I did not. Updating the Bios did fix flaming icon (loss of network connectivity). It also seems to help with connection distance as I can now use my Epods at my neighbors house; before I could not. 04-01-2001 21:21:56

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Nezza Sadlerjohn, what do you understand to be the latest version number? I downloaded the spring release of ce 2.12 drivers from the Orinoco site. 04-02-2001 02:52:26

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Pete Nezza... just checked and it appears that u are using latest software and firmware. Try increasing amount of CE programming memory. 04-02-2001 05:38:50

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Nezza Pete, I increased the program memory last night (to 11 MB total), so far so good although I've not been running it for hours. How much program mem do you have allocated/free? 04-02-2001 06:13:08

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Pete around 16 megs....have updated to 32...and have been able to run it 3-4 hours with no problems copying files, surfing net, email...etc... 04-02-2001 09:16:58

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) nezz Pete, if you add a cf card this can be used as program mem or straight data file storage? 04-02-2001 11:55:39

RE:Terminal Services / Orinoco hanging problem. (modified 0 times) Pete You can do both with CF memory. The more you use or shift to CF the more app memory u have. 04-02-2001 16:21:51
